Size, according to a quick google: "Measures approximately 4" x 2" x 5" when closed"

As to vents.... There's a small vent on the back? Perhaps I could sand the battery compartment smooth and then carve/drill a larger vent in a suited style into it?

I've just realised what you mean by hover boards.... Those things have WHEELS and they should never have been allowed to call them hover boards! 'XD

Oh, I should point out the battery compartment visible in that photo is actually the much smaller backup battery compartment! I was referring to the main one, which is about four times the size.

This case would be for the handheld, rather than the PlayBox unit. Just a little 'bare bones' version to read on, though fitting in a speaker -- which is actually what that thing I presumed was a vent is? -- would be awesome.

If I slip the pine board in, carve out a hole for the screen, what else do I need to include? Well, as it's the handheld, it'll need a battery. Maybe forego the speaker in favour of a headphone jack to keep as much room in there for them to breathe?

I was thinking more reading and listening to music. Gaming would be nice, too, though. I suppose if I set it up as a mini-tablet, that would cover all my bases, digital art, too.

Kinda like a mix between my 3DS and my phone, minus phone functionality? Ideally it would basically be the portable version of my PlayBox unit so I could leave the 'large' 7-inch thing at home and take the vaguely-but-not-really-pocket-sized handheld with me when I go out.

But then, the preview image in BackerKit for the PlayBox enclosure looked rather flat... Whereas before it had an incline that functioned as a built-in stand. This made it more bulky, awkward to pack into bags.

If it's flat now, then I might just try and take an *actual* book and convert it into a large enough enclosure to house the Pine in and just take the 7-inch with me. It's not so big as to warrant a handheld unit if it's no longer the awkward-for-transport shape it was. I only wish the book of spells was large enough to be used with the screen that came with my tier :/

... I'll have to use a blank book. I'm not sure I could bring myself to wreck a real book...

Well, this is damn nice :/ --- http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/klevercase/product/kindle-cover-book-of-spells

I wonder... *shrugs* Could I fit all the Pine materials for a handheld into a slim enough enclosure to fit in this? :0c It's pretty damn nice and basically exactly what I'm trying to create, other than being merely a 'skin' that still requires Pine to be in a case.
